Fort Wayne, IN – A man was hospitalized Friday afternoon after being shot during an altercation in a Fort Wayne business drive-thru, according to local police.
Fort Wayne Police said officers were dispatched around 2:45 p.m. on November 7 to 7604 South Anthony Boulevard after multiple 911 calls reported a male being shot by a female in a vehicle line.
When officers arrived, they found an adult male suffering from a single gunshot wound. Medics transported him to a nearby hospital, where he was listed in serious but non-life-threatening condition, authorities said.
According to police, a female suspect has been detained in connection with the shooting. Investigators believe the incident stemmed from a heated confrontation between the two individuals while in the drive-thru.
Several witnesses were interviewed at the scene, and police say those involved are cooperating. Additional individuals reportedly connected to both parties were also dispersed by officers after a separate confrontation nearby.
The investigation remains active under the Fort Wayne Police Department and the Allen County Prosecutor’s Office.
